Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of talar mobilization with movement versus acupuncture on knee pain and function in the postmenopausal women

Condition or Disease	Intervention/Treatment	Phase
Talar Mobilization Acupuncture	Other: Mobilization wih movement	N/A

Detailed Description

A sample of forty postmenopausal women were selected from Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Participants were assigned into two groups (group A) postmenopausal women who receive the talar mobilization with movement technique for knee joint , their age raged from 50-60 years (n= 20) and (group B) postmenopausal women who receive acupuncture for knee joint (n= 20), their age ranged from 50-60 years and body mass index (BMI) for both groups were less than 30 kg/m2. All participants were evaluated through measuring knee range of motion by using goniometer and the degree of knee pain by using numeric rating scale and pressure algometer
